The Legendary Man novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134 Break My Legs

I caused the company to go bankrupt and even owe a shedload of debts?

Despite Mike’s and Vincent’s contemptuous gazes, Jonathan was in no hurry to explain things. Instead, he shifted his gaze to Tavion.

I’ll just see what he’s going to say!

However, Tavion acted as though he didn’t notice the man’s gaze on him. He merely waved a hand and urged, “Let’s not talk about that. It’s all in the past! Besides, he wasn’t to be blamed entirely for the incident back then. I was also partially responsible!”

While he was seemingly defending Jonathan, he was actually answering the two men’s question in the affirmative.

In other words, he was saying that it was indeed Jonathan who had caused the company to go bankrupt back then!

“Hmph! You’re too generous, Mr. Callahan, to not take offense at such a trivial matter! If it were me, he would be getting off easy with two broken legs!” Mike proclaimed with a harrumph after hearing that.

“Mr. Ziegler, you haven’t even imbibed, yet you’re already drunk?” At that, Tavion threw him a glare and chided, “Whose legs are you threatening to break? Jonathan is my good friend, so I won’t just stand by and do nothing!”

“I just feel sorry for you, Mr. Callahan! Say, how could someone like him still have the audacity to seek you out and even sit at the same table with you?” Snorting, Mike glowered at Jonathan with repugnance written all over his face.

It was as though sitting at the same table with Jonathan was a great insult to him.

“Why would you feel sorry for me? I don’t even mind, so it should go doubly for you!” Tavion shot him a hard look before he turned to Jonathan and urged, “Just ignore him, Jonathan. He has an inherently sharp tongue. I’ll have him down three glasses later as an apology!”

“That’s unnecessary.” Seeing them both singing to each other’s tune to demean him in every way possible, Jonathan merely smirked and said to Mike, “Earlier, you were the one who wanted to break my legs, yes?”

“So what if it was me?” With a frosty expression on his face, Mike barked, “If it weren’t for Mr. Callahan’s sake, lad, I would’ve long since had your legs broken! Who do you think you are? And what right do you have to sit at the same table with us? Wasn’t it enough that you caused him to go bankrupt back then? Yet, you still have the audacity to seek him out? What’s your motive in doing so this time? To ask for a loan or to procure a job in his company?”

While saying that, he stared at Jonathan condescendingly as though the man was dirt beneath his shoe and would never amount to anything.

“You’re talking too much, Mr. Ziegler!” Frowning, Tavion shot daggers at him.

Hearing that, Mike snorted and asserted, “Don’t hold me back, Mr. Callahan! He has long since been getting on my nerves!”

Subsequently, he turned to Jonathan and mocked, “You want to get a job at his company, don’t you? He still needs a driver for his Rolls-Royce! Are you interested in that? Otherwise, how about joining our company? Our company is short of a security guard! Are you taking the offer? If you are, I’ll inform the finance department tomorrow and have them contact you! But before that, you’ve got to prostrate yourself before us and apologize. You can only join our company if we’re satisfied with your apology. After all, we don’t employ deadbeats!”

In his eyes, Jonathan was no different from a deadbeat.

So what if he had a net worth of over a billion a few years ago? He still ended up with his company going bankrupt and owing a slew of debt! If it weren’t for Mr. Callahan bringing him along, would he have the right to dine at the same table with us? He’s a total loser!

“He’s right in that you’re being too loquacious.” Jonathan wasn’t the least bit enraged despite the man’s interminable snubs. Instead, he cast him a bland look and repeated, “Earlier, you said you wanted to break my legs, didn’t you? How were you planning on doing that?”
